Following the release of their \u003cem\u003eOut of the Bloom\u003c\/em\u003e EP on Lockin Out Records, the Boston-based band have created a debut LP that shares an anguishing, relatable story of love and loss through the catharsis of spirited, loud indie rock. Consisting of guitarist Alex Henery (also of Basement), vocalist Patrick Flynn and drummer Shawn Costa (both of Have Heart), Fiddlehead explore musical styles different from their other projects while bringing a familiar energetic and emotional core to the collaboration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSpringtime and Blind \u003c\/em\u003estemmed from Pat’s loss of his father. Flynn looks at how his mother coped with the situation - losing her spouse, her centre of gravity - writing the lyrics as an emotional catharsis for both of them. Like the pain both he and his mother experienced, “a wild grief so well hidden,” the songs on this album hide the pain of loss beneath a layer of punchy, energetic instrumentals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the process of writing and recording helped Flynn cope with his personal loss there’s no doubt it carries a universal message that can help ease others’ loneliness. A contrast to itself, \u003cem\u003eSpringtime and Blind \u003c\/em\u003eis a multidimensional and relatable journey through its cathartic message and spirited instrumentals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased: June 2026\u003cbr\u003eCat: RFC174LP-C6\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Run For Cover Records\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eListen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
